If you are more comfortable reading hard copy, you can print the articles and read them off-line.

When you finish, share your reflections on the Role of the Web in Education using the TEC 908 Web Discussion Board. Navigate to the Role of the Web in Education section on the web board and scroll down to Add a New Message. You will also want to read some of the comments and reflections shared by other course participants.

Be sure to enter your Name in the Username field (first name only is acceptable), leave the Password field empty and (if you wish) enter your actual e-mail address in the E-mail field. This information will allow me to record your completion of the assignment.

Feel free to respond to messages posted by your fellow TEC 908 course participants.
